it’s called moi moi in Yoruba language. It’s called bean cake in English language

Okpa is not moi moi o.. the two looks similar but are not.
Moi moi is made from beans, but okpa is made from a different seed in the family of beans. The okpa is very common in the East up till Benue and Abuja.. I had well prepared ones in Enugu.

The 2nd pics is abacha and I dey eat am.. the 1st is roasted yam and sauce.
3rd is okpa with something but the okpa is everywhere.. even the seed that looks like beans.

CJIDEX:
Ogbaman, contact the seller and appreciate him then tell him u don't mind if he can get you something similar cos u want to surprise ur gf or ur mum for birthday. Get a police involved and play along.

Shalom

The best thing for the OP to do is to get to the nearest Police command with a legal person preferrably a lawyer to report his suspicions on the phone and give a statement to clear his name.. I'm sure the police ogas he'll meet there will understand and they'll be the one to lure the seller not the OP.

It's not everything you bring online.

If you have the money assist him with the basic things he will need.
Forget the money.
Invest in your bro guy.
No be everything be profit.

If tables were turned, will the said brother invest in the poster?
Let him help his brother set up the business, but the guy should settle him later on.

Draw up a contract for him.. let him sign agreement on repayment means.
You can make it very flexible and easy on him, but he should repay in full.

But buhari promised blood on the streets and kept his word after he lost to Goodluck in 2011.

Which do you prefer? The obis type of turning "politics to war" or the buhari type?

NB: it was this same buhari who unleashed carnage because he lost in 2011 that Tinubu said was nigerias only solution

None!

You don't see PBAT supporters attacking Atiku for going to US courts because majority of those supporting PBAT are civilized and well cultured.

The other candidate and his followers have insulted almost all the prominent figures in Nigeria simply because they wished Nigeria good fortunes under President Tinubu.. It speaks alot about their person and character. The ones that love Nigeria conditionally only when it suits them.

Lastly, Buhari has done his own but Obi supporters (mostly Igbos) haven't and I doubt they will ever.. not with Yorubas support.
We have very large memory and we don't forget easily. We go wait for Obi people for front.

Na so e suppose be.. politics no be war.

The other mandate seeker turned election to religious war, the followers too have turned life to war zone by insulting everybody not in support of their fake, incompetent messiah.. na dem go still suffer am in the end.

Smithwilliams826:
“A lot of contractors have complained that it is cheaper to import, but we are not allowed to import cement because we have to help the cement industries, but they also have to be reasonable with us if we are going to be patronising them"
Why can't they help with agriculture in Nigeria?

They will call it names like local patronage to promote local manufacturers.. when they eventually ban import of these items, people like Dangote will now increase their own prices and expect Nigerians to keep mute like he owns the country.

How I wish PBAT can break the monopoly in that Cement sector and allow importation of cement into the country. The only language Nigerian manufacturers understand is vawulence, greed won't allow them do the right thing.

Imagine a product made in Nigeria despite all the soft landing from FG for these manufacturers to cut cost, they still sell at unreasonable prices to make excessive gains.

Slave has bin employed to work for his master

He is working for his country..

Umahi came prepared.. kudos to the Engr.

He should monitor those contractors handling Abuja roads well, else it's just to pour sand, pour water on the roads and disappear that they like. Till the next project is secured to go and do same thing.

Corruption sha dey kill this country on a daily.

He should ask the owner of BUA cement.. that one is more honest than Dangote.
He once claimed they were extorting Nigerians by selling cement at the price they were selling then.

That is the problem with monopoly.. they boxed out other players so they will be the ones dictating price and be getting richer. Government gives them incentives like waivers, tax holidays etc. and they get their major raw materials which include limestone right here in Nigeria (limestone is in Ewekoro in Ogun state and in 13 other states), so what is their excuse??

Hunger is killing you and Senators are there sending tokens to their accounts to go and enjoy their holidays..

After collecting bogus allowances for doing nothing, they still pad budget and inflate figures to make extra 'bogus' money while the common man on the street keeps suffering.

Naija I hail.

@OP You should have changed into something comfortable to clean his house and arrange the place to taste the way you want it..

In those days, it's girls that are homely, can clean house and wash clothes that get to have serious boyfriends not like now that civilization has changed everything.
You've not even washed jeans and you are complaining.

I got the 27,000mah variant of Oraimo when it first came out and I don't regret.. not that I was using it for anything, just felt there should be a power backup of some sort for visitors when they come and need to powerup their devices in case of no light.
It's still working excellently well after several years.

@OP School is never a scam.. just that you didn't have the right orientation from the beginning. If we check well now, e fit be one of those glorified secondary schools called private uni products who are nothing but big babbies.

University (or whichever institution it is) is where you first experience life with some level of freedom to make life choices, manage time and resources before you venture into the wild (life after school).

There were some guys in Unilag back in the days that ventured into music, comedy, entertainment etc. as side hustle that are all big boys and girls today.. Even film industry cos those top movie stars were always in the school to shoot films and they relate well with students.

Education is still the best Legacy and I will never regret going to school (a very good one at that) cos it opened my eyes far too much.

What am I even saying sef.. some guys were running evening tutorials for serious minded students from different faculties and they get small token or fee that'll take care of some parts of their needs.. some were running Jamb tutorial centres, programming lectures, you name it and were still doing excellently well academically.

@OP O lo ra oja ole..

Just prepare yourself for jail when SARS operatives come knocking.

I'm sure you saw it very cheap and decided to go for it.. Most cheap phones and gadgets are stolen devices.

The man that got her pregnant should foot the hospital bills.. if he doesn't have, let him borrow from his relatives or those loan apps to pay her bills.
If he fails, then let her go rot in hell.

Let the ugly women breathe

They are not called headless mob for fun.. sense is far from them.

It's same way they have been acting irrationaly in real world. Las las they will be alright

stanluiz:
Close which case ? I laugh in swahili

Your Obi better watch his steps going forward else he might find himself in kirikiri for impersonation.

Just watch and see what will befall Obi when Apapa opens his case file and make public all the forged documents he used as front to contest elections under LP.

Una 'All eyes on the judiciary" go soon turn "All kneeling to beg the Judiciary".

Good development..
Apapa should close case at the Tribunal and join hands with his brother to rebuild Nigeria.. all hands should be on deck at this point for a better Nigeria.

Congrats once again to Lamidi Apapa, the authentic National Chairman of Labour Party.

The same woman went to Imo and was rejected, even disgraced cos she is married to a non-Igbo man. They wouldn't even accept her (an Imo indigene) to represent them there in Imo but same woman has been running hate campaigns, even fighting indigenes of a place she isn't from.

A time will come when Yorubas will not only reject Igbos but will also reject Yoruba men married to Igbo women with cases like this one we are seeing.

She married Ondo, she is meant to detach from Imo and embrace Ondo people but it's never the case with Igbos.. they see situations like this as opportunity to go and dominate other tribes in their ancestral lands.

If to say she no run commot from Imo, those people for kill her.. but here she is in Yorubaland misbehaving anyhow because Yorubas are peace loving people. Ejo e ko.

Ondo people must not agree to one handpicked Imo state indigene becoming Chair of any LCDA in the State.. No election was conducted so she has no legal rights to be Caretaker.
Moreover, the traditional ruler there can't be taking orders from a non indigene.. It's an aberration that must never be allowed to stand.

When you go shopping, buy the basic things you use like soaps, detergents, beverages etc with long shelf life in bulk instead of 2 or 3.. buy plenty and keep in the house. It will save you the transport to the store or supermarket every now and then.
Adjust your meal time table.. some do one zero one, like that just to reduce feeding cost. My advice is don't ever skip breakfast cos it's like the most important meal of the day.

Any lady that leaves you to marry someone else shouldn't even get a reply from you in your chats wherever..

Is it low self-esteem that is affecting you people or the desire to have extra-marital affairs?.. cos it's obvious OP knows she wants sex.

sonofsteven:
Do you think planes carry full passengers?

Have you heard of hijackers taking up seats for themselves to resell?

Say what you know please, do you think 400+passengers fly to lagos on a daily in a one way trip?

Even international flights will not take up full passengers, they go to their country to join passengers and still not get filled up

If you are a flier or frequent traveler,you go understand...

Let's stop this I too know

If you are a business person, you will understand the economy is not smiling

That was how one was saying shits about business people increasing prices, what they don't know, they want to talk about it instead of asking questions... dollar no dey stable, rmb no dey stable, leave people in that position or with knowledge of it to Express themselves

If you are into importation, you will know what they faced, if you are into road transportation, you will have an idea of their plight, if you are a salary earner, you will know what employees face(a self employed man won't know what employees go through) everyone with his or her own...


That was how the above commenter they bash people in business and he or she has no single idea about Business... ask me about airlines and I will tell you some secrets which the airlines are battling because I have some knowledge of it,if e pass me,I give you the one I know,you go meet the next person to add up

Thank you

On good days when politicians are having functions in Abuja.. those airlines carry full load and make cool money. On other days, their aircraft get filled up more than half of total seats..

If you want me to write a 10 page document on business and the challenges in all the sectors in Nigeria, I would do it, with ease sef.

If and when you interact with foreign CEOs and MDs of businesses operating in Nigeria.. then you'd realize that Nigerians operating businesses in Nigeria are part of the problem affecting the system.

The aviation industry is somehow protected to favour Nigerians running airlines unlike some other like oil and gas.. most of the complains you hear are FX exposure, double-digit loans and whatnot but I tell you that Nigeria is still far better for business owners today judging from global economic trends. There is the free movement of persons and goods within Africa called AfCFTA they are pushing for to connect businesses and investors across Africa. How will they justify their unreasonable air fares then?

Watch the banking sector closely and you'll see the big progress they are making.. banks like GTB, UBA and some others have entered the International scene and are fast expanding to many countries but the ones in aviation are giving reasons to choke Nigerians and think we should all keep quiet and accept it.

Brendaniel:
Good one, I hope it serves the purpose it was created for....

It will hopefully.. the new IGP is one police officer par excellence.

According to Obi followers.. Yorubas have taken over the country

Yoruba lokan.

mrvitalis:
It's obviously not greed oga if you could do it cheaper why now do it

Definitely not greed

It's obviously system bottleneck most likely

What sort of bottlenecks could be responsible?.. Police, VIO extorting their pilots mid-air or which?.

Let's call a spade a spade.. the airline operators are out to swindle Nigerians. People with their mentality can't go far or break grouds in the international scene where there are set regulations with strict monitoring and enforcement on compliance.

Holluwhakemmy:
These Obidients supporter self they started insulting Baba Adeboye then Prof Wole Soyinka now it is Baba Kumuyi soon it will generate to all Yorubas just because Peter Obi.

The Peter Obi they are insulting others for will never be president of Nigeria.. This I am 100 percent sure of.
Let them continue in their folly.. iwofa lenu.
They should keep abusing freedom of speech.

mrvitalis:
I honestly don't get why u can get flight from London to Paris for under £50 ... There are flights under £20

Their pilots earn more, their workers generally earn more than Nigerian aviation workers by a factor of over 7

Aviation fuel is way cheaper in Nigeria

So why exactly is flight far more expensive in Nigeria

I honestly can't get it honestly

It's greed of the black man... The airline operators won't disclose the exact amount of money they make with just one trip carrying hundreds of passangers.. not to talk of the multiple trips per day and amount they make on weekly and monthly basis.
They have formed cabals in the aviation industry to be milking Nigerians just like other sectors.

One bus will carry 18 - 22 people max at 35k for 10 - 14 hours journey but plane will lift as much as 400+ passangers at once for airbus for a 1hr 15mins trip.
They are telling us rubbish just to jistify their own 419 activities.
